Courthouse records:  They were recorded all the way back to the early days of the county - 1850's probably.  But, there was a fire at the Dodge County Courthouse in 1877 and all of the records before then were destroyed.  This would include births, deaths, marriages and land records.  They resumed recording them after the fire, so these are the earliest records available.  Church records are your best source of early marriages, but they are not indexed or filed in a central location.  You have to contact the individual churches!

Century Farms Article - Jefferson County Daily Union

County Home (“Poor Farm”) and residents.  The county poor farm (or almshouse) was a fixture of many counties in the early days. These tax-supported institutions were places where individuals who could not support themselves could go. Generally residents were required to work if they were able on the farm that was usually a part of the property (hence the name "poor farm"). Some individuals might find themselves in temporary dire circumstances and remain at the farm a short time. Others might stay longer. Illness, injury, loss of job, death of parents, or a variety of other circumstance may have been the reason. In some cases, a county or township official might have had to request the person be admitted.
